- gave out exasperated sigh at having to wait

- Make pop-up box less invasive and obvious - notify when person accepts, not when waiting ✘

- Didn’t know how to get back to map screen ? - people were confused how to send a request to meet - transition between a chat and a meeting not intuitive

Map - Map button to directly access the map/navigation in one tap - Hyperlink the agreed upon place in text message

- thought tapping “Name” navigated back to the person’s profile

- Allow both tapping name and tapping “back” to lead back to the profile page

- Tapped address and expected to be able to choose where to meet

Enter Destination - Choose: - Allow for destination entry and suggest a POI

- Didn’t understand what the arrows stood for - didn’t know the difference between friends/strangers

- Default: show all people - friends and strangers - different levels of icons for each relation - profile pictures for friends - picture outline for strangers

! - Didn’t expect it to be a slide-out menu

- Not surprising in a bad way, no fix necessary

- Tapped Friend expecting to be directed right to the profile page - didn’t know that pop up menu needed to close first - Startled and confused

- When anywhere outside of the menu is tapped, close the slide-out menu
